Starting Over

September 15, 2012

Sometimes life takes you to some decisions
you just have to take.

That’s
what I first thought when I decided to move out of my country. Nothing new is
happening; everything is but a shell of comfort. I realized I have not really
challenged my self to do something different and take a leap of faith and do
something to change my life.

Did
it ever occur to you when you feel there’s something you just have to do and
you feel it with so much conviction that you just had to take it? That you
didn’t care a single bit if that decision was so reckless, you would have to
sacrifice not being with people you are happy with just so you can follow what
your gut is telling you?

Well…
Obviously… That happened to me.

And
the first hit strikes when that 30kgs of my life was packed in a medium sized
cargo box and a luggage bag.

Can
you imagineyourself having to move in a foreign country, with only one
30kgs allotted for your luggage to pack your entire life? What will you do?

What books should I take? What documents should I bring? And
finally… What clothes will I bring?!?

When I arrived my
destination, it took days when I realized I was stuck with only these:

And when it hit me… I
sort of panicked! 20+ years of my life summarized in four shelves!

Don’t you find it
weird that I’m taking a shift from Existentialism to pure Materialism? Well… that’s
not really the point! Really! I have a point here!

Point is: Starting over

Yes! I have
figuratively emptied my closet to put in new stuff that would somehow help me
with my new life. Yes, that’s my point!
Does it make sense? I don’t know, but I’m trying! I really have nothing to say
but that. :D

This is not really
just about stuff I just want to put in my wardrobe, but something sort of a
journey to whatever things I’m about to encounter in this new beginning and
stock it up my own life closet.

And with a little
courage, I am willing to share this journey to whom will ever find this blog
interesting. And trust me, I have lots of stuff share not just clothes so I’ll
try not to be boring… I hope.

So, in my own phase
of starting over I will remember this date as I will try my best to fill up my
closet(and-other-life-changing-stuff)
in a year!
